There are several hundred towns in this
country wht.se development is retarded by-
lack of capital and skilled labor.

There are thousands of good opportunities
for investmpnt goinf: a begging.

There are five cities which have a surplus of
capital and skilled labor, and each has a news-
paper read by every intelligent capitalist and
workman in that city. Here they are:
New York, . . . The Sun
Boston, .... The Globe.
Providence,. . . TheJourn.il.
Philadelphia, . . The Press.
Pittsburgh, . . . The Despatch.
Ah outlay of a few hundred dollars for
reading matter advertising will put the con-
dition of any promising young town or enter-
prise before the readers of these five papers
(circulation, half a million; number of read-
ers, over two millions).

Every experienced merchant knows that his
first business letters were pretty poor stuff.
The epistolary models he now dictates are the
result of years of constant practice. Yet,
because he does write perfect business com-
munications, it by no means follows that
he can write a good advertisement or circular.
That is an art acquired after steady work,
only by those who have a special talent for it.
It is money saved to employ an expert to do
writing of this kind, as any merchantrmay
prove, when next about to advertise or issue
a circular, by applying to

R. Wayne Wilson and Company,

The Central Railroad of New Jersey

IN CONNECTION WITH

THE READING RAILROAD SYSTEM,

Royal Blue Line to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington.

MOUNTAIN, LAKE AND SEASHORE.
BEST IN COMFORT. BEST IN SPEED. BEST IN SAFETY.

HIS System of Roads embodies a greater diversity in its ramifications than perhaps any
American railway. The traveler can, by this perfectly equipped system, visit all prominent
points on the New Jersey seacoast between Sandy Hook and Atlantic City, all parts of
Central New Jersey, the Valley of the Lehigh, through the Coal Regions of Pennsylvania
and the Wyoming Valley by the magnificently managed Central Railroad of New Jersey.

ToNIAGAKA FALLiS and the Great Lakes no line offers such picturesque beauties as the
Great Leliigh. Valley Division of the Reading Railroad System, to Buffalo and Niagara
Falls, aptly named the " Scenic Route of America." By this route the traveler passes through
the beautiful Valley of the Lehigh, and the famed Anthracite Coal Regions of Pennsylvania.

To the Nation's Capjtal, the Koyal Blue liine offers the fastest and most sumptuously
furnished trains in America. Five hours between New York and Washington is the time con-
sumed daily by the trains of the Royal Blue Line, the passenger being assured of equally quick
service to Philadelphia and Baltimore.

The block system in use insures safety, and the rock ballasted road-bed, with smokeless en-
gmes and modern coaches afford that comfort which is characteristic of this great trunk line. AH
trains leave New York from Ferry, foot of Liberty Street, Nortli Iliver,

Tlie Central Railroad of New Jersey, the Lehigh Valley Railroad, the Phil-
adelphia and Beading B. B., and the Baltimore and Ohio R. R. trains leave from
the commodious station of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, at Communipaw, Jersey City.

Time Tables are found in all the New Yoik City papers, and in all public places in New York
and Brooklyn.
